Thumbheed Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Not bemoaning his sale but can't help but feel these are exactly the type of games he'd have thrived in and made a difference. Edited August 19, 2023 by Thumbheed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to bump the mitro thread to say we might have won tonight if we hadn’t sold him too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir_9 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Love Maxi to bits and will be one of my favourite Newcastle players for sure, however now that the dust has settled - you just know that our style of play has moved on and that he was terribly inconsistent with his injuries and form for us in recent times. So I do not share the opinion that he would have absolutely made the difference today. He was our absolute MVP during some dark days and did his best to adapt during the new era but ultimately was sold for reasons to benefit the club in the grand scheme of things. Sure others needed to leave before he did but those are deadweight that we were never going to get any value for. Like others said, it would be a good idea to not bump the thread every time we don't win a game.. Edited August 19, 2023 by Amir_9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Think it's perfectly valid to point out out his qualities as a player that we might miss against the top sides who are very organised and difficult to break down, something that's perhaps missing with Gordon, Almiron and Barnes as our wide options.

It'll be bumped every time Barnes makes an appearance as well, good or bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree though. Didn't want Maxi sold in the slightest but I reckon I moved on as soon as Barnes come on and got a goal and assist in 20 minutes last week.
